information 0.58 [David Haywood, Stephane Humbert]


TODO:

- Attribute bits on bg tiles - what are they for?

- Is scrolling / bg placement 100% correct?


NOTES:

- Driver by David Haywood, dipswitches and Inputs by Stephane Humbert.

- Mug Smashers is a side scrolling beat-em-up, borrows ideas from Combatribes, including the music (apparently) and sound hardware! There is also a Spanish company logo in the graphic roms. A 1990 copyright can be found in the sound program so its 1990 at the earliest.

- The DSW ports are a bit odd, from reading the test mode it appears the board has 2 physical dipswitches, however these are mapped over multiple real addresses, obviously this gives us two ways of dealing with them, USE_FAKE_INPUT_PORTS is used at compile time to give an option of which behavior we use.


WIP:

- 0.58: Added mugsmash.c driver and vidhrdwmugsmash.c.

PCB information
mugsmash Mug Smashers
[Dec/12/99]
 
 Mug Smashers (c) Electronic Devices / 3D Games
 
 Final Fight style beat-em-up.
 
 Not sure what type roms 1 and 2 are, I read them as 27c040's so they
 might not be right or may contain duplicated data.
 The game runs without these 2 roms anyway, I think they're just
 sound samples (Ughs and Args etc)
 
 Rom 3 has some text in it relating to Technos and the OKI sound chip used,
 it has a (c) 1990 message. I'm told the music is the same as used
 in the Technos game "The Combatribes".
 
 Roms 4 and 5 I think contain the program data
 
 Roms 6 to 15 are the gfx (I think :-) These were all SGS 27c4001's
 
 Main CPU is a 68000 at 12MHz
 Sound CPU is a Z80, not sure what speed.
